*Achievement Unlocked*

Hi Guys!I just wanted to share that after many tears, screaming at the computer screen and moments of self-doubt, I am now finished my computer science degree!

This last course was a bitch and I had left it until the end because I was utterly petrified of it. Finishing school has been extra challenging because I have been working 35 - 40 hours/week for the past 2 years in order to avoid student loans. It's so tiring working an 8 hour day and having to push your brain and body to work even more hours! It's funny, but I feel so much more emotion over finishing this degree than my first because it was just so much harder! I really think that Compsci is much harder than Biology if you aren't used to thinking a certain way. When I started, I had no experience whatsoever and I really struggled. I wanted to quit so many times, but now that I'm done I'm proud of myself for sticking with it.

I am just so relieved to be done so for now I am just enjoying being a 9 - 5 grunt and thinking about side projects to work on. Blogging has been a ray of sunshine in the last couple of months and it'll be nice to be able to indulge myself in the beauty blog world completely guilt-free! I've thoroughly enjoyed reading some wonderful blogs by wonderful women and I can't wait to see what trends and beauty topics 2012 brings! Sooo good to be finished!! Woohoo! Now, I can go play my 80 Steam games that I've been too busy to play!

WOW!! Congratulations!! You sure are inspiring! :D I have no idea where someone gets so much energy. A full time job, finishing a degree, blogging... all at the same time! :DAw yeah, game it up! There are some great ones on Steam!
